? paid $400+ just to play Call of Duty?......nevermind.
EDIT: It didn't even launch in Japan yet -
We did it!
-
Should be Copping mine soon

In before Focus comes in and says "The Xbox One will sell more than the PS4" and post more irrelevant b.s. Regarding the system.
-
LOL @ thinking focus will touch this thread anytime soon.
-
Its crazy how many consoles sold given the fact graphic and feature wise this is the smallest jump yet from one system to another. I will be copping mid to late 2014 myself and most of it is cause im still digging this current gens games.
-
The ? contest begins on 2 days.. while the PS4 is the cheaper and more powerful system, the XB1 will be more popular
-

Well of course it will. Unlike the PS4, the X1 has a global launch so it will break this record. Its simple math.
I just didn't want to rain on yall parade since yall were having so much fun counting somebody else's money lol -

@Focus you are saying that 24 hours after xbox1 is released it will have sold more than ps4 did in its first 24 hours?
-
I guess it might be possible since the One will be the debut system in the 12 other countries that will start selling it.
-
And them ? said console gaming was dead!
Surprised @ the Wii U outselling the PS3 and 360 in first month sales. -
PS4 sells off normal ads alone.
X1 needs celebs and musicians to sell. -
How can it be more popular when PS sells better in Europekanggoodie wrote: »The ? contest begins on 2 days.. while the PS4 is the cheaper and more powerful system, the XB1 will be more popular
,Japan and now the U.S? What logic are you using? I don't know a single 360 owner who is buying an X1 but they all getting a PS4.I'm sure it's the same in most places. -

Why settle for 720p next-gen games when almost every PS4 game supports full native 1080p? See what PS4 owners are saying: http://playstation.greatnessawaits.com/

Sony owns Europe.Always had and always will.PS4 preorders are over 1mil there too.I would wager lifetime it sells the same or more than PS3 lifetime. -
